Write a reviewIexperience at Bradford Automotive
I had a horrible experience at Bradford Automotive in Maiden, N.C. I purchased a 2008 Ford Explorer 4X4 from Bradford in October 2022. The day after my purchase, it stalled on 16 Highway with a tractor trailer directly behind me. When I alerted Bradford he told me to take the vehicle Fitzgeralds to have it looked at. It turns out that the main computer which makes the vehicle run was replaced by Bradford without disclosing it to me prior to my purchasing the vehicle. (I only found out from the manager at Fitzgerald’s - the automotive shop Bradford uses to fix and inspect the cars he sells. The manager’s exact words were “I feel sorry for you” which I understand to mean everyone was aware of the problem before Bradford sold me the vehicle.) Eight months later the vehicle still stalls periodically without warning and I am still trying find another computer for the vehicle all the while Bradford is holding the warranty on the replaced computer but refuses to respond to my communiques. In fact, he has told the people at Fitzgeralds not to help me. I, in good conscience, cannot sell the vehicle to an unsuspecting buyer like Bradford did to me so I am stuck with a car that is dangerous to drive and worthless because I never know when or where it will stall.

Awesome place to shop for a quality used vehicle!
Was in the market for a used Tahoe. Found the exact one at Bradford's that I was looking for. Made the deal, and drove it home that day. Customer service was impeccable! Highly recommend them for anyone in the market for a used vehicle!!

Perfect car for me!
Went to Bradford's to ask them to find me a car in my price range. About 3 days later, I was sent a couple of pictures of some really nice looking older cars. I picked one I like the best, and that suited me the best. A couple of days later the car was checked out, routine maintenance completed, and car all cleaned up. I was told to drive the car for about a week, and then to come back and let them know how it felt. There were a few insignificant corrections and fixes I needed, and all was done the same day! My experience with Bradford's was fabulous!
